With time winding down, Arizona State missed an inside shot, followed by a mad scramble that resulted in the Sun Devils’ retaining possession with 3.6 seconds left. Arizona State inbounded the ball to Orsillo, who broke free along the baseline and made the winning shot.

The Sun Devils trailed 59-49 with 4:30 left before mounting a comeback. Tenaya Watson tied the score at 61 with two free throws with 1:11 left.

“They were attacking the basket,” Cal coach Joanne Boyle said. “We either fouled, they got layups, or they got an offensive rebound.”

Orsillo led Arizona State (13-7) with 20 points. Freshman Gennifer Brandon scored a season-high 18 points and grabbed nine rebounds for Cal (11-9), which saw its winning streak end at five games.

Cal’s Alexis Gray-Lawson, who scored 47 and 39 points in the previous two games, finished with 14.

Santa Clara

Men: After giving Gonzaga a scare in their previous game, the host Broncos fell behind quickly against the Pilots in a 74-52 loss.

Robert Smith had 17 points for Santa Clara (9-15). Marc Trasolini, the Broncos’ leading scorer, was held to 10 points.

Women: Lena Gipson scored 19 points to lead the Broncos in a 73-65 loss to the host Pilots.

Santa Clara (3-19) led 50-48 with 13:50 left before Portland (15-7) went on a 12-2 run.

Meagan Fulps and Alyssa Shoji each added 13 points for the Broncos. Tara Cronin led the Pilots with 17.

Menlo College

Men: At the end of a bona fide classic. Menlo College knocked off previously undefeated Holy Names 67-66 in a nip-and-tuck California Pacific Conference battle that went down to the wire inside Haynes-Prim Pavilion Saturday night.

Menlo (3-4, 7-13 Cal Pac) trailed by a point when Julian Harris scanned the floor and gave his defender a shake to create just enough space to launch a pull-up jumper from just inside the arc that dropped through for the Oaks first lead in over 11 minutes with 32.7 seconds left. Harris led all scorers with 23 points.

Women: Menlo College needed to shoot well, hold onto the ball and keep its best players on the court if it wanted to have a chance to beat Holy Names on Thursday night. The Oaks struggled to do any of the three well enough to knock off the impressive visitors in a 69-61 California Pacific Conference loss inside Haynes-Prim Pavilion.

Katelyn Guild led Menlo (8-12, 3-4) with 14 points and 11 rebounds for a double-double while Senoj Jones scored 15.

Oaks wrestling

Senior Katherine Fulp-Allen refused to end her Menlo College career on anything less than high note, adding to her legacy with a second consecutive Women’s College Wrestling Association National Championship and Wrestler of the Year award on Saturday at Missouri Valley College.

On the men’s side, fielding only seven wrestlers didn’t prevent Menlo College from taking home some hardware Saturday as Jason Moorehouse and Kiyoshi Kawano each placed at the California Collegiate Open held at San Francisco State University. Moorehouse, a junior, placed second at 125 pounds while the freshman Kawano was fourth in the same weight class.

The National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum announced Monday that Jon Miller, who has spent parts of five decades as the voice of five Major League Baseball teams and has been the voice of ESPN’s national Sunday Night Baseball telecasts for 20 years, has been selected as the 2010 recipient of the Ford C. Frick Award, presented annually for major contributions to baseball broadcasting. Miller will be honored during Hall of Fame Induction Ceremonies on July 25 in Cooperstown, N.Y.

Miller has served as the play-by-play voice of the San Francisco Giants since 1997 and previously called games for the Orioles (1983-96), Red Sox (1980-82), Rangers (1978-79) and A’s (1974) in addition to his work with ESPN. Miller started his broadcasting career with KCSM, doing broadcasts of College of San Mateo football, basketball, and baseball games.

The NBA announced Monday that Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry was the Western Conference Rookie of the Month for January. Over his first 15 games of 2010, Curry averaged 19.1 points, 5.1 assists, 4.4 rebounds and 2.1 steals.

The Oakland A’s sent the transaction wire buzzing Monday, trading infielder Aaron Miles and a player to be named to the Cincinnati Reds and signing free-agent outfielder Gabe Gross as part of a flurry of moves.

Miles, who had been acquired from the Cubs on Dec. 3, was shipped to Cincinnati in exchange for infielder Adam Rosales and outfielder Willy Taveras, the latter of whom immediately was designated for assignment.

The A’s also claimed minor league infielder Steve Tolleson off waivers from the Minnesota Twins.

Rosales, 26, was the key player for the A’s in the Reds trade, as the move with Taveras indicated. Taveras wasn’t the only one removed from the A’s 40-man roster; left-handed pitcher Dana Eveland and infielder Gregorio Petit also were designated for assignment.

The A’s aren’t likely to keep Tavares, a speedy player whose tools would replicate those of Coco Crisp and Rajai Davis. If they can’t work a trade for Taveras and he goes unclaimed on waivers, the A’s likely will release him and eat the majority of his $4 million salary for 2010. They saved $1.7 million by trading Miles.

Mike Martz, the headstrong coach who orchestrated “The Greatest Show on Turf” while molding Kurt Warner into a Pro Bowl quarterback with the St. Louis Rams, is the Chicago Bears’ new offensive coordinator.

Martz’s hiring Monday ended a nearly monthlong search to replace the fired Ron Turner. His job is to turn around a struggling offense and get the most out of Jay Cutler after the quarterback and team failed to meet high expectations this season.

Cutler threw a league-leading 26 interceptions after a blockbuster trade with Denver. The Bears went 7-9 and missed the playoffs for the third straight year since the 2006 team’s Super Bowl run.

Gilbert Arenas insists he now understands that “guns and violence are serious problems, not joking matters.”

In an op-ed piece written for The Washington Post and put on the newspaper’s Web site Monday, the suspended Washington Wizards guard pledges to be a better role model and says a “message of nonviolence will be front and center as I try to rebuild my relationship with young people in the D.C. area.”

Roger Federer experienced quite a range of emotions these past two Australian Opens.

A year ago, he sobbed on court after losing a thrilling final in five sets.

Federer was all smiles Sunday after rather easily beating Andy Murray 6-3, 6-4, 7-6 (13-11) for a fourth championship in Melbourne and 16th Grand Slam title overall.
